Definitions
- a reactive armour wall structure A reactive armour wall structure
- the present invention relates to a reactive or "dynamic" protective armour wall structure for protection against hollow explosive charge jets and comprising one or more separate, replaceable panel structures of which each forms a closed container filled with an explosive charge capable of being detonated by the hollow charge jet.
- One such reactive wall structure is known, for example, from the German Patent Specification No. 2.031.658, and is effective to degrade or disturb the hollow charge jet to such an extent as to impair penetration of the jet.
- One known reason for this is because the jet detonates the explosive charge so as to generate forces which accelerate the plates of the panel structure forwards and backwards towards the et, therewith degrading a large part thereof.
- the explosive charge has the form of an explosive layer positioned on • the inner surface of the outer wall of the panel and at a given distance of the inner wall thereof, so as to leave an air gap between the inner wall and the explosive layer. Since this air gap is portant to the function of the protective wall structure, the interior of the panel cannot be filled completely with explosive, which limits the efficiency of the protective wall structure. Further- more, in the case of this protective wall structure it is solely the outer wall of the panel and the explosive layer affixed thereto that constitute the functional part of the protective wall structure when impinged upon by a hollow charge jet. Furthermore, t is known wall structure will not degrade a hollow charge jet which impinges on the waLl structure at right angles to the plane thereof with the same degree of efficiency as when the jet impinges obliquely to said plane.
- the object of this invention is to provide a reactive wall structure of the aforesaid kind which will enable a greater amount of explosive to be used in the panels than was possible hitherto, and which is so formed that the whole of the panel structure is operative in degrading or disturbing the hollow charge jet, even when the jet impinges on the wall structure at right angels to the plane thereof.
- the invention is based on the realization that it is not primarily the dimensions of the explosive charge that influence the ability of the panel structure do degrade the hollow charge jet system but rather the dimensioning of the panel structure, or conta ner, and then primarily the characteristics of the side walls of said structure, in combination with the explosive charge.
- the side walls of the inventive panel structure which extend substantially at right angles to the wall structure, have been given Shockwave reflecting properties, so that detonation waves generated within the panel structure by an impinging hollow charge et or thorn will be reflected back towards the jet and therewith degrade the jet. Consequently, in order for the detonation waves to be reflected continually ithin the panel structure over a prolonged period during the hollow charge jet sequence, it is necessary to ensure that the panel side-walls will remain in situ for as long as possible, so as to effect a gradual offload in pressure in the panel structure.
- the aforesaid remaining walls of the panel structure preferably comprise two armour plates which are arranged in mutual spaced and parallel relationship and are joined 'to the side wall with the aid of suitable joining elements, optionally supported by confinement strengthening means in order to establish a strengthened holding force.
- the best jet degrading effect is achieved when the inventive panel structure, or container, has cylindrical walls, since the load will then be symmetrical when the panel structure is impinged upon in the vicinity of its centre.
- a satisfactory jet degrading effect can also be obtained with elliptical or polygonal panel structures, e.g. square or hexagonal panels, with sui able dimensioning of the corners and edges of such panel with regard to their mechanical strength.
- the panel structure can be safely given smaller dimensions, ith a resultant decrease in damage to the protected ob ect.
- the actual projectile with its explosive charge and shrapnel will therewith dominate from the aspect of damage.
- FIG. 1 illustrates in cross-section two mutually identical panels 1 and 1' forming part of a protective wall structure which is intended to be placed in front of an object 10 that s to be protected against hollow explosive charge jets, e.g. a conventional armoured wall structure 10.
- Each of the panels comprises two metal plates 2 and 3 which are arranged in mutually parallel spaced relationship and which form respectively the outer and inner walls of the panel structure, and further comprises side walls 4 which extend perpendicularly to the plates 2 and 3 and which are attached sealingly to respective edges of said plates with the aid of joining elements not shown, so that the panel structure has the form of a closed container.
- the panel structure 1 is fi lled completely with an explosive charge 5, e.g. a plastic explosive.
- the plates 2 and 3 and the sidewalls 4 may be made, for example, of steel or some equivalent material having a
- the plates 2 and 3 of the panel structure 1 have a hexagonal configuration with a plate thickness of about 3 mm ⁇ 10 mm), and the side walls 4 have a corresponding hexagonal configuration with a wall thickness of 5 mm (12 mm).
- a shock-absorbing layer 6 of soft resilient material such as a plastics or rubber ' material for example, that has a much lower density than the density of the side walls 4.
- the layer 6 prevents flashover and serious deformation of mutually adjacent panel structures due to shock, and will also permit the side walls of the panel structure to shift transversely to some extent, when the explosive in the panel structure is detonated.
- the layer 6 is preferably slightly thicker than the side walls 4, and suitably has a thickness of at least about 6 mm.
- Figure 1 illustrates schematically a hollow charge jet or thorn 7 which strikes the panel 1 at right angles to the plane thereof and penetrates the plates 2 and 3, and which subsequently continues along a path 7a, cf. F gure 2, and exits through the rear side of the panel.
- the hollow charge jet 7 initiates detonation of the explosive charge 5, therewith gi ing rise to detonation waves 8 which propagate between the plates 2 and 3, in a direction towards the side walls 4, and which impinge obliquely on sai d plates 2 and 3.
- the detonation waves 8 are reflected by the side walls 4 and propagate back towards the hollow charge jet, these detonation waves (load relieving waves) colliding with the jet and degrading the et.
- the hollow charge jets will have already been disturbed to some extent at an earlier stage, by detonation waves reflected from regions of the plates 2 and 3 located in the close vicinity of the jet.
- the plates 2 and 3 will also be blown away, whereas the side walls 4 will be displaced transversely so as to enter the resilient shock-absorbing layer 6 while compressing the same, possibly with a subsequent rebound of the side walls.
- the side walls will also be blown away subsequent to parting company with the plates 2 and 3.
- the layer 6 will also prevent flashover between mutually adjacent panel structures and will protect these panel structures against serious deformation and damage.
- a Shockwave absorbing layer 9 may be placed on the object 10, so as to prevent shrapnel entering the object at 11.
- the layer 9 will also cause the outwardly flying pla-t-e 3— to bounce back powerfully towards the hollow charge jet, therewith further degrading the jet.
- the distance between the panel structures, and e.g., a conventional armoured wall structure 10 may vary from 0 mm to several hundreds of millimeters, with essentially the same effect.
- the side walls 4 are preferably dimensioned so that when the explosive charge is detonated the walls will have a velocity which is equal to or less than the velocity of the plates 2 and 3. Such dimensioning can be achieved through appropriate selection of material, thickness etc. Since the manner in which the side walls can be dimensioned in order to meet the aforesaid requirements will be obvious to those skilled in this art, no further description with regard hereto will be g ven here.
- the side walls 4 will also preferably have a high dynamic mechanical strength, and may therefore be made of, e.g., steel as beforementi oned.
- the panel structures are fitted to the protected object 10 with the aid of thin plates 12 placed on respective opposite sides of the panel structure.
- FIG. 5 illustrates panel structures 1 intended for various applications at an armoured vehicle or tank front 13.
- the reference numerals 14 and 15 designate panel structures 1 which define an air gap and with which a damping material is used.
- the reference 16 designates a panel structure 1 with which solely a damping material is used.
- the reference 17 designates panel structures 1 with which a Shockwave absorbing layer 6 s provided between the panel structures and a damping material is provided ' between the panel structures and the protective object.
- the reference 18 designates a panel structure which defines an air gap that slopes down to zero width.
- the additional degrading function of the react ve panel structure provided by the side walls can be optimized with regard to certain significant aspects:
- the explosive charge shall have a high detonation pressure (> 10 GPa), which wi ll generate a high pressure in the panel structure or container, and therewith radically disturb or degrade the hollow charge jet.
- This disturbance of the hollow charge jet is enhanced by the high density and thickness of the side walls of the dynamic panel structure.
- the reactive wall structure should have a flow stress or yield point ⁇ in excess of 200 MPa. s
